Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ) Prevents Cognitive Deficit Caused by Oxidative Stress in Rats
The effects of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and coenzyme Q(10) (Co Q(10)), either alone or together, on the learning ability and memory function of rats were investigated. Rats fed a PQQ-supplemented diet showed better learning ability than rats fed a CoQ(10)-supplemented diet at the early stage of the Morris water maze test. The combination of both compounds resulted in no significant improv...
متن کاملNephrotoxicity of pyrroloquinoline quinone in rats.
When pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) was intraperitoneally injected into rats daily for 4 days at a dose of 11.5 mg/kg body weight/injection, functional and morphologic changes of the kidneys were clearly observed. The most prominent finding was necrotic and degenerative changes of the proximal tubular epithelium as well as hematuria and an elevation of serum creatinine concentration.
متن کاملRegulation of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in PTU induced mice, treated with Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)
Hitherto unknown effects of Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) in 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU)induced oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation were investigated in adult mice. Animals received either PTU (0.05% in drinking water) alone for 5 weeks or PTU + three different concentrations of PQQ, after which alterations in tissue lipid peroxidation (LPO) and in enzymatic activities of superoxide dism...
متن کاملAttenuation of Diabetic Nephropathy by Carvacrol through Anti-oxidative Effects in Alloxan-Induced Diabetic Rats
Background and Objectives: Diabetes, a common metabolic disorder, is prevalent in many countries. Nephropathy is a main debate’s side effect. Role of oxidative stress is well known in induction of diabetic nephropathy while carvacrol is a potent anti-oxidant that might attenuate oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of carvacrol in d...
متن کاملOxidative Stress in Diabetic Nephropathy with Early Chronic Kidney Disease
The increase in the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and the secondary kidney damage produces diabetic nephropathy (DN). Early nephropathy is defined as the presence of microalbuminuria (30-300 mg/day), including normal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) or a mildly decreased GFR (60-89 mL/min/1.73 m(2)), with or without overt nephropathy. The earliest change caused by DN is hyperfiltration w...
